TEKS Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills
base curriculum for every subject in every grade level taught at a Texas Educaiton Agency (TEA) approved school. It determines the information each students should know and skills they should be able to do and provides an outline for curriculum design and learning goals that classrooms should accomplish for the year.
26
Teachers in Texas must understand the significance of the TEKS and utilize this guide to determine
instructional goals and objectives
27
Most important theme of the PPR for developing learning activities and experiences is to
design them so that they support a specific objective or set of objectives in the unit. Activities must have a clear purpose and be presented in an appropriate manner that is consistent with the student's abilities
28
To ensure expriences support specific objectives or set of objectives, the teacher should ask themselves
1. is the objective of the assessment clear? 2. Is this material relevant to the instructional unit in which we are currently working? 3. is this age-appropriate? (students need reading material and other forms of media that are on an appropriate level for them developmentally) 4. Can this activity be assessed in an objective manner? (Generally, rubrics are used for projects and writing assignments) 5. Will the majority of the students find this meaningful and relevant? 6. Is this consistent with the goals and expectations of the state standards?
29
Ensure that activities _____. Then, make sure the activities _____.
Ensure the activities clearly support specific objectives. Then, make the activities interesting and purposeful.
30
Backward Design
also known as backward planning, is the approach to lesson planning where the teacher starts with the goal (usually an objective derived from state standards) and works backward to identify all skills and activities needed to ensure student success.
31
Steps to Backward Design
1. Start at the end, with the final goal or objective. You'll identify what the students will learn or be able to do. 2. From there, determine how to assess. Identify how the students will show mastery and how it will be measured 3. Finally, plan your lessons. Think through the instruction and learning experiences students will need to meet the objective.
32
Teachers should consider appropriate standards and goals in order to
understand what end result is desired.
33
Tachers should decide specifically how mastery is to be measured and develop
an appropriate assessment before starting to plan day-to-day lessons
34
Teachers should design all activities, assignments, and projects to support the end goal
and prepare students to be successful on the final assessment while respoecting students' developmental stages and meeting their desired levels of thinking
35
Teachers should consider the questions that will be posed to students during the development and flow of each lesson based upon
responses received from students througout each lesson's periodic informal formative assessments
36
Teachers should plan to end each lesson with a closure activity
a time to sumamrize the learning for the day. Examples included Q&A from teacher to student, summary of the lesson, prompt requiring a written response
37
In backward planning, work backward compared to the student perspective. Decide on
The outcome first, then how mastery will be measured, then the lessons.
38
When planning instructional units, teachers should consider how instructional concepts and goals
move logically and in sequence, so students can comprehend how each unit applies to previous units of study. Thankfully, most teachers do not have to figure this out on their own.
39
A scope and sequence
tool that helps teachers organize state standards into manageable plans for their classroom. Scope refers to the topics to be covered and how deeply to cover them
40
Scope refers to
topics covered and how deeply to cover them.
41
sequencing describes
the order in which the topics are to be taught.
42
scope and sequence allows teachers across campuses
to cover the same content within the year. Lets students transfer classes or campuses during the school year and encourages level of continuity among schools.
43
scope and sequence give teachers a
starting point for planning instruction. It helps to maintain the most logical progression of learning objectives
44
when it comes to specific units of instruction, teachers should plan out
entire units before beginning instruction to ensure all standards are accounted for and that content is presented in a logical, coherent manner
45
teachers ____ stick to the exact plans no matter what
should not stick to the exact plans no matter what. Even carefully planned instruction must remain flexible to meet the needs of students
46
when making adjustments, use
your scope and sequcence to ensure adequate time to cover the scope, and not get too far off the sequence
47
Effective teachers plan with a zoomed-out, big-picture view to assure
logical sequencing and support instructional goals
48
When it comes to pacing classroom instruction, lessons and units
cannot move too fast or too slow. They need to be just right
49
structure individual lessons and larger units of instruction t allow
adequate time between the learning objective.
50
Leaving adequate time between learning objectives, provides the opportunity for students
to reflect on what they have learned and incorporate the new material with previously learned material.
51
Self-assessing understanding of material and having a sense of closure leads to
higher retention and a deeper understanding of the material learned
52
small group instruction
opportunity to meet students' needs throughout the unit, whether that be extra time for reteaching or adding a layer of challenge for students who are ready to move on.
53
students need adequate time for
active processing, repetition, and reinforcements.
54
remember you aren't covering the material,
you're teaching it. You aren't done until students are done
55
Structuring lessons and units with time for active processing, repetition, and reinforcement will assure
students have time for multiple opportunities for students to work with the material in different ways. It will also provide time for students to see and work with the material in meaningful chunks, as opposed to trying to cram too much into one lesson or unit.
56
Teachers should properly space out learning objectives and give students
multiple opportunities to work with material in order for them to retain and understand it best.
57
interdisciplinary instruction
integrates multiple subject areas by putting them together. By integrating subjects, teachers can provide students with a broader understanding of content and develop the awareness of the ways in which the knowledge and skill of each subject can be utilized in other subjects.
58
interdisciplinary instruction benefits students in many ways
draws motivation from different subjects makes learning meaningful and relevant prepares students for real life fosters critical thinking and collaboration provides greater appreciation of the value of all subject areas
59
thematic units
units of instruction that have an overarching, uniting theme or topic. Multiple skills are incorporated into the unit
60
Interdisciplinary connections are all around, and teachers
should help students find them
61
when students make connections across disciplines,
they are stronger learners overall.
62
One of the most important reasons teachers use assessments in the classroom is
to know how to effectively adjust their instruction to meet the needs of their students
63
Teachers need to know if what they are doing is working, and
they must assess students to find out
64
Teachers make instructional decision using both
quantitative and qualitative data
65
quantitative data
numeric, analyzed statistically, test scores
66
qualitative data
not numeric, analyzed observationally, anecdotal notes, student surveys
67
Using a variety of assessment methods when collecting data and evaluating performance
provides a well-rounded information to the teacher and allows students with diverse needs to have multiple opportunities and formats through which to demonstrate their knowledge
68
once teachers have assessment data, they should
use it to make instructional adjustments
69
if the class struggled greatly, the teacher should
reteach using a different approach. I should also be confirmed that he expectations were clear
70
if the class demonstrates mastery on most of the assessment, except a small portion, the specific skill or concepts should be retaught. Teachers should take a new approach
for the targeted reteaching.
71
if the class demonstrates mastery, teachers should
move on or increase the challenge level
72
Effective teachers use data to guide their instruction not only for the whole class but
for their small group and individualized teaching as well
73
teachers use quantitative data and qualitative data to make
instructional decisions
74
The level of mastery (or lack thereof) students demonstrate should
determine next steps
75
If students do not demonstrate mastery,
adjust the instructional approach
